how do i verify that my system meets minimum system requirements?
umm... So i was looking for some of those fun times on the internet that my friends are always talking about... lying ****ers.

 
If it says that, it means you don't have the requirements.  It's just not telling you outright "You computer isn't fast enough".

i loved TA, i think one of the best things about those games, was the 2000 unit cap, full scale war just got a little fuller.

I think the default limit is 50000 this time around in the full version (of course can be set higher later as computers get more powerful).

Ugh, be glad you guys can play it!

Those damned bastards changed it just enough from the beta to make it not work in Windows 2000! *cries*

ok wile playing skirmish i seem to have noticed an odd behaviour with the Cybran, and it only does this when i play against AI cybran, on normal AI. The AI NUKES itself!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i have witnessed it 3 times, it will launch a nuke at its own base when none of my units are there! but it dosent do it on the hard AI. I will say i am i a little disappointed with the AI because it does none of the tactics that chris taylor says it does on the making of dvd, ie, if you say have very strong ground defense's but weak air at one side of your base he says the ai should go round your base to the weak side or use bombers to take out your turrets and walls, well it hasn't on any of my games, which has left me a little sad. It does how ever make a very strong and challenge base defense for its own side, i play on map last nite it was an island on 81km by 81km on hard balanced AI 5 hours it lasted. So will the AI is still very similar to standard RTS's i still very much so love this game, mainly just because of the fact that like TA aircraft do proper dogfigthing!!!!!!!!! unlike other RTS's where the airunits just hover and attack.

Actually, there's a way you can make it work.  You have to copy some of the dll's into the bin folder instead.

You sure that's not just their ACU exploding? 

 
Or even a chain reaction of Tech 3 reactors exploding.

Remember, adjacent bonuses with T1 Power == Good

While T3 Power beside anything other than a shield == very bad

Because when the T3 power goes belly up it creates a sodding big bang that takes anything near it with it...

So it's a bad idea to build a string of them through your base ;)

That would explain what happened to my Commander last time around. Short-range firefight around enemy T3 power=bad.

Though not quite so bad as taking a T3 arty round to the face.

i'm sure it is a nuke, i had the nuke warning blips and a icon on a nuke on the mini-map, its weird that it only does it on the cybran
